'…despite a few pacing problems and an abrupt ending, The Devil’s Workshop is an effective intro for the talent involved, and for Mitchell, it’s a show-reel that demonstrates a real talent in a tricky, dramatic, somewhat diabolical turn...'

Rated: 3/5

Common Sense Media

This lightweight, semi-comedic horror movie starts interestingly enough and has some unexpected moments, but its final stretch feels like a tasteless prank, cheapening the impact of the whole.

Rated: 2/5

Movie Madness Podcast

The film is two (admittedly decent) portions that keep knocking each other of the way and you keep wanting to stay with either one instead of being bounced around. Radha Mitchell is great but it needed a more focused narrative.

Rated: 2.5/4

Bottom line: this is an indie horror made with love that’s worth your time. Hold onto your butts for that last 15 minutes!

A film made by the committed performances by Granaderos, Mitchell, and Hirsch, Devil’s Workshop deserves a spot on that coveted Halloween countdown watch-list.

[T]he cheap and rushed payoff does a final disservice to this previously promising material...

The lead actor was good so I was hopeful but the storyline was odd and unsatisfying. Nothing much scary about this.

Totally ridiculous movie, if I can call it that. It feels like an amateur movie made by undergrads that went totally wrong. The only good thing about it is the widespread unintentional humour.

Absolute crap! I watched this movie expecting it to be another "Dark song" nope was the sad reply. An actor needs to portray a demonologist in a upcoming role,so he reaches out to the internet and gets a reply from real demonologist. From there in it gets extremely tedious as it tells the story of two actors auditioning for the part. The film has no pace, protagonists are boring clichéd idiots and there's no real scares throughout. As for the ending it was predictable. At some points I thought the movie was moving up a gear,but failed to get there. Don't waste your time with this rubbish it's been done before,but better. If you want a decent horror movie to watch then watch "A Dark Song" it's a far better movie that you'll watch again and again after your first watch.
